Our students, families, and staff have collectively chosen to extend our learning to a modified year-round schedule. We are excited to provide year-round instruction according to the schedule below.

“All our handling of the child will bear fruit, not only at the moment, but in the adult they are destined to become.” ​-Maria Montessori

Research suggests that a modified year-round schedule allows for greater retention over the shortened summer break, while allowing for just as many days off throughout the year. Families enjoy the opportunity to vacation together in off-peak times, and instructors are able to effectively plan creative units for each six-week school period.

Year-Round Learning = Better Retention, More Fun!
